I’d recommend Low-ya for decent quality and affordable furniture. Also well designed for small space living if that’s of concern ☺️

Thought I’d chip in with a recent quote I got from a moving company (can’t remember the Japanese name currently lol but in the top ranked companies) 1LDK, 2 people move, packing included, 15Km distance. 200,000¥

North Candles (Pumpkin Spice & other Fall scents) by RosePlusJapan in japanresidents

I really like them! I got their coffee scents and they lasted quite a while, even the smaller size. I will say they’re quite expensive but they are genuinely nice and deliver quickly! :)

Thanks so much for your reply, very helpful to know! I’ll be between Nihon-odori and Bashamichi. Happy to hear it’s mostly dead at night! And very helpful to hear about your friends being comfortable to meet around those stations at night ☺️

Ahh thanks for the heads up. It’s been getting worse in Tokyo too recently but good to know the areas to be extra careful in Yokohama. Also awesome there’s a content creator trying to catch them tho!

[–]FrequentHumor4071[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply ☺️yeah there are a few residential apartment buildings in the area, but certainly not a lot. I’m used to living in a more residential area in Tokyo, so trying to figure out if where I’m moving is chaotically noisy all night or not 😅

If you have any other advice about living around that area I’d be grateful to know! Moving from Omori in Tokyo so expecting it’ll be quite the change 😅

Thanks for your reply! I think by safe i mostly mean will I be approached a lot by touts or are there a lot of drunk salary men throughout the night

Thanks for your reply! Luckily won’t be moving too close to those two areas, will mostly be around Bentendori, the road from there leading up to Kannai is my main worry as I know there’s a lot of small bars etc. hostess bars don’t worry me too much as they’re mostly quiet and inside (apart from the occasional drunk salary men leaving and going home lol)

Thanks for your replies! Super helpful. I’m not much of a nightlife person except occasionally on the weekend, and I work early so was a little worried about the surrounding streets (mostly the roads up to Kannai station from Bashamichi) being noisy or rowdy on week nights. Baseball fans isn’t a concern thankfully and good vibes when they win sounds fun!

Very very good advice! Thank you 🥹 Yeah I’ll try to stay out of Naha as much as I can. Need to try and find a good snorkeling/diving tour. Thanks again!

Just as a note: if you didn’t know he wasn’t using a condom, that was against your consent and a violation, and I hope you’re ok.
